Summary

Built in 1940, this dam stands at a height of 20 feet and has a maximum storage capacity of 60 acre-feet. It spans 450 feet in length and serves the primary purpose of water resource management. Situated on the TR-SNAKE CR river, this dam is regulated by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board and undergoes regular inspections to ensure its structural integrity.

Despite its low hazard potential, Oknoname 111029 is classified as a very high risk due to its location and the potential impact of a breach. While the dam has not been rated for its condition, it is equipped with a controlled spillway and a valve outlet gate for water release. The surrounding area has a normal storage capacity of 40 acre-feet, covering a surface area of 4 acres. With its strategic position in Okmulgee County, this dam plays a crucial role in managing water resources and mitigating flood risks in the region.

Although Oknoname 111029 has not been modified in recent years, its emergency action plan (EAP) status and risk management measures are currently not available. The dam's risk assessment shows a very high level of concern, highlighting the need for proactive monitoring and maintenance. With its historical significance and vital role in water management, this dam serves as a valuable resource for climate enthusiasts and water resource professionals seeking to understand the complexities of infrastructure management in Oklahoma.

Condition Assessment

Satisfactory
No existing or potential dam safety deficiencies are recognized. Acceptable performance is expected under all loading conditions (static, hydrologic, seismic) in accordance with the minimum applicable state or federal regulatory criteria or tolerable risk guidelines.
Fair
No existing dam safety deficiencies are recognized for normal operating conditions. Rare or extreme hydrologic and/or seismic events may result in a dam safety deficiency. Risk may be in the range to take further action. Note: Rare or extreme event is defined by the regulatory agency based on their minimum
Poor A dam safety deficiency is recognized for normal operating conditions which may realistically occur. Remedial action is necessary. POOR may also be used when uncertainties exist as to critical analysis parameters which identify a potential dam safety deficiency. Investigations and studies are necessary.
Unsatisfactory
A dam safety deficiency is recognized that requires immediate or emergency remedial action for problem resolution.
Not Rated
The dam has not been inspected, is not under state or federal jurisdiction, or has been inspected but, for whatever reason, has not been rated.
Not Available
Dams for which the condition assessment is restricted to approved government users.

Hazard Potential Classification

High
Dams assigned the high hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation will probably cause loss of human life.
Significant
Dams assigned the significant hazard potential classification are those dams where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life but can cause economic loss, environment damage, disruption of lifeline facilities, or impact other concerns. Significant hazard potential classification dams are often located in predominantly rural or agricultural areas but could be in areas with population and significant infrastructure.
Low
Dams assigned the low hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life and low economic and/or environmental losses. Losses are principally limited to the owner's property.
Undetermined
Dams for which a downstream hazard potential has not been designated or is not provided.
Not Available
Dams for which the downstream hazard potential is restricted to approved government users.
